Redemption

Chapter 10

Theme Song: Lord Huron - The Night We Met

Laurent's P.O.V.

As she admits this, I can feel my heart break for her. I need to make her happy. I just wish I knew how. There's a void in her heart and I can feel it. We finally make it home and I glance at her and saw her bruises reappearing.

"Baby, you don't have to hide your bruises from me. I love you past that. You are my world and those bruises don't affect me one bit.", I say as I hug her from behind.

"I know you, Selena, and the others are really worried about me but I'm fine.", she said.

"Naomi, I know you better than that. You're deeply hurt. It's okay to admit that. It will actually help you to heal emotionally.", I said as I held her close. I could tell she wanted to but it's not something she's used to.

"Thank you.", she said as she cried silently.

I hate that she's so broken like this. It almost makes me wonder if she'll ever be the same again. We walked into the living room and lay on the sofa as I pulled her close. I look down and see a small smile on her face as she played with her fingers. It honestly makes my heart melt to see her smile.

"Wow. I haven't seen that in a while. What's making my baby girl smile so much?", I ask, kissing her cheek. "I was thinking of the last time we were in here and that was when I was so excited about going to the spa with Mama B. and the girls.", she said with a smile.

Suddenly, inspiration struck me like lightning. That's it! A spa would really make Naomi so happy. Owning a spa has always been her most prominent dream. I truly believe that would put the spark back into Naomi. After all she went through, she deserves it. I have the perfect spot that I know she will love once it's all glammed up.

"Baby, I know you, Selena, and the others are worried about me. I'm fine. I'm still shaken up but I'll be fine.", she said. I know Naomi like the back of my hand. She is broken and I honestly don't know if she'll ever be the same. However, I refuse to give up on her.

"Laurent, I'm hurting. What I went through made me think of all the abuse I've gone through over the years. It made me think of all the shit I went through with that monster. The only difference is that monster is now my mother. She gave up her daughter for a high. However, I refuse to sit here and bring that baggage into this marriage.", she said as she caressed my face.

Hearing my baby speak makes me realize how much she really cares about me. She kissed me softly as I held her close to me. At this moment, I realized how much I missed kissing her.

"I love you so much, Naomi. Nobody will ever hurt you again. I swear on my life nobody will ever get that chance again.", I said as I gazed into her eyes. She ran her fingers through my hair as the kiss grew deeper. I pulled away softly, gazing at her.

"No, baby. I don't wanna hurt you.", I said as I caressed her face. Even though I would love nothing more than to make love to her. I don't want to hurt her more than she was already.

"Baby, I need you.", she said softly.

I could feel my body pulsate for her. I couldn't take it anymore. The honeymoon was really the last time we'd gotten close to each other and we both needed each other. I succumbed to her soft touch as she pulled me closer. I wrapped my arms around her waist as I made her straddle me. I softly sucked her neck as I start stripping away her clothes. I grabbed her by her thighs, carrying her to the bedroom as her lips never left mine. I laid her down as I gently removed her clothes. I could see traces of the bruises that pierced her beautiful skin. She tried her best to hide me from seeing them. I took her hands, kissing them before placing them above her head.

"Don't hide, baby."

My clothes were discarded, leaving me only in my boxers. I gently placed kisses along Naomi's body, hearing soft moans flow from her mouth. Tonight was about her. Her pleasure was the ultimate source of mine. I placed her legs along my shoulders as my kisses made it to her sweet center. Oh, how I missed tasting her. It feels like we haven't done this in forever. I really wanted to take my time in pleasing her. I wanted to indulge myself in her as if it were the first time.

"Shit, Daddy. That feels so good.", she moans softly.

I pulled away, grabbing a condom as she watched my every move. I hover over her, gazing at her beautiful face. I grab my member, teasing her fold as I watch her gasp in pleasure. She clawed my back as my body rocked into hers. I buried my face into her neck as she pulled me closer to her as we rocked through our orgasm, bringing each other to completion. 

Naomi's P.O.V.

I felt so safe with him. For so long, I craved his touch...his kiss...his caress. never before had I appreciated his gentleness so much. He really made it a night to remember. "Baby, I can't tell you how much I missed your body.", Laurent said.

"Baby, I feel the same about you. You cater to me in every way possible.", I say as I kiss him passionately. I love this man with all my heart and soul. No longer will I hide what I'm feeling. It hurts that I'm keeping my addiction from him. It's killing me inside. "Baby, I just want you to know that I love you with every fiber of my being. Since I watched you take up for me against Andre in that studio. I knew we would become something more. You always know what to say to make me feel special. You make me feel beautiful and complete. I love you so much, Laurent. I appreciate you for loving me and making me happy.", I said as tears filled both of our eyes.

"Baby, I adore you. You are my heart. Without you, I'm incomplete.", he said as he kissed me passionately. I then drifted off, being in the arms of the man I loved.
